EMA Java OmmConsumer AssertionError

EMA Java OmmConsumer fails with an AssertionError after running for 2 days:

java.lang.AssertionError: byte buffer must be non-null

After this exception the OmmConsumer stops serving any requests.

RTSDK version 3.7.3.0

It seems that the RTSDK code incorrenly handles the situation when there is 'No payload. Reset iterator and return'

see https://github.com/Refinitiv/Real-Time-SDK/blob/e1bd1ad7411e3e68b19ed1fd49f848646ebb2d09/Java/Eta/Core/src/main/java/com/refinitiv/eta/codec/Decoders.java#L133

Thank you for reaching out to us.

If I enable assertions (-ea) in Java, it will show this assertion when the API retrieves the update message with an empty payload.

<UPDATE domainType="MARKET_PRICE" streamId="3" containerType="FIELD_LIST" flags="0x00" updateType="0" dataSize="0">
    <dataBody>
    </dataBody>
</UPDATE>

I am not sure why the data feed sent this update to the application. You may need to contact the data feed support team directly via MyRefinitiv to verify this message.

If I disable the assertions, the application will get the following message.

<!-- rwfMajorVer="14" rwfMinorVer="1" -->
<UPDATE domainType="MARKET_PRICE" streamId="3" containerType="FIELD_LIST" flags="0x00" updateType="0" dataSize="0">
    <dataBody>
    </dataBody>
</UPDATE>


UpdateMsg
    streamId="5"
    domain="MarketPrice Domain"
    updateTypeNum="0"
    name="IBM.N"
    serviceId="1"
    serviceName="DIRECT_FEED"
    Payload dataType="FieldList"
        FieldList
            FieldEntry fid="0" name="" dataType="Error"
                OmmError
                      ErrorCode="IteratorSetFailure"
                OmmErrorEnd
            FieldEntryEnd
        FieldListEnd
    PayloadEnd
UpdateMsgEnd

In conclustion, first, please contact the content team to verify why the update message has an empty payload. Then, if you are a Refinitiv Developer Connect (RDC) named user, you can contact the API support team directly via Contact Premium support to investigate this issue in the API. If you are not a Refinitiv Developer Connect (RDC) named user, you can submit this issue via GitHub.

I hope that this information is of help.

Thank you @Jirapongse

please provide steps how to reproduce an empty payload message with containerType="FIELD_LIST". What utility or API you were using?

@VadimVashkevich

I modified the ETA Provider example in the RTSDK package to publish an empty payload message.
